Gentlemen,
I saw some behavior I don't like today.
When I move the table using the handwheel and have the feedrate
override set low I see a rubber band effect. The table runs on after I
stop turning the handwheel. I have the jog-vel-mode set true for each
axis. The axis moves in the manner I like when I have the feedrate
override at 70% or above. As I move the feedrate override lower the
rubberband effect gets more apparent.
Would it be possible to peruse the code again to see if the
accumulated counts can be dumped?
Otherwise, the Dahlih, is running perfectly. Clyde had a program
incorrect. He gouged the part. The part is a piece of steel. He was
standing by the machine paying attention to some other parts. The
cutter started cutting and as expected, started making a little cutter
noise. When he caught it, the cutter, a 1 inch diameter roughing mill,
had cut a slot 1 inch deep and 1 1/2 inches long. I don't know the
speed and feed. He was expecting to cut around a circle and remove
about .100 in. from the inside of a hole 1 inch deep and 2 inches in
diameter. With the extra slot in the part he had to start over. It is
sad to say but we cannot charge extra for this type of unintended
material removal.
My point is the mill and EMC handled the load in such a manner the
noise of the cut didn't increase to the point of grabbing the
attention of the operator standing next to the machine.
I continue to be impressed by how solid and reliable EMC drives
this machine.
I hope to configure the axis compensation shortly.
thanks again for this fine project
Stuart
